WHY IS HUNT CURTAILED.
Guessing The. President's. Rea
son For Has1:ening Home.
Rumors and Rumors.
Washington gossips are busy just
now trying to hit upon some reason
why President Roosevelt has curtail
ed his hunt for game in the Wild
West and is scheduled to return
ho-ne -the latter part of next week,
says the Washington correspondent
of the News and Courier under date
of Saturday. Some of the "know
alls" declare that it is domestic re
sponsibility and not a national emer
gency which induces the sport loving
President to close his game bag, un
load his rifle and cut across lots
homeward.
From another quarter comes the
suggestion that Miss Alice Roosevelt
is about to announce her engagement
to a popular Congressman from the
West. There is also a well defined
report that the President had been
advised of the unexpected magnitude
of the pending International Railway
Congress. Those close to him have
advised that his presence here during
the session of the Congress might be
helpful to him in dealing with the
railroad rate problem, which is so
dear to his official heart. The Lo-om
is-Bowen controversy is also given as
a reason for the President's early
home coming. There are a number
of minor departmental matters in a
somewhat tangled condition, which
r.re expected to be straightened out
when the President returns.
Gecrgia politicians are anxiously
waiting the President's return, fo- at
the postoffice department it is said
that the long pending controversy
over the Brunswick postmastership
has been made up for the President's
early consideration. There are no in
dications that the Georgia referees
are any nearer an agreement now
than they were several months ago.
In the meantime the political backers
of A. M. Smith, T. J. Hardaway, Mr.
Cole and Mr. Nightengale are bring
ing to bear all the pressure and influ
ence they can muster in their respec
tive interests.
Postmaster F. M. Brown, while
still in charge of the office, has not
the slightest prospect of being reap
pointed. At the department, it is
said. fhat his removal is certain, and
the only hitch now is in trying to in
duce referees, Walter Johnson, Ma
jor Hanson and H. Stillwell Edwards,
to try and agree upon one of the can
'didates in the field. The only new de
velopment in the case is the gradual
growth o-f the political strength of
Mr. Cole. He is said by his friends
to be a consistent Republican-of long
standing, popular with the business
int~erests of Brunswvick and capable of
making an efficient postmaster.
Some of the leading Republicans of
the State who have heretofore indi
rectly favored other candidates have
quietly informed. Postmaster General
Cortelivou that Mr. Cole wvoLld prob
ably he the most aeceptable man to
soliv the problem.
it is understowd thaut the subject is
no.w in such shape that one more ef
fort will be made to induce the refer
ees to agree upon a candidate. If
they show a disposi;ion to continue
the deadlock. Postmaster General
Cortelyou is prepared to make a rec
ommendation to the President inde
pen&nt of the referees.

KNOW THYSELF.
Is the Advice of Noted PhysiciolC
Igist and Prominent Scientists.
It is not s:range that there is s
much sickness this spring if we stc
ithink how v'ery few of us uncle
sand the wonderful machinery of th'
human body. Physiologists an
eimhits constanltly state that
en and woCmeni would only stud
emielves, know themselves sot
pcak. a la7ae perce'ntage of the sici
nss in the wvorld would be done
ay with. Headaches. backache:
lss of appetite and "the blues" ar
complaints which one pays little al
tention to until the attacks begin t
ccur periodically; then the suffere
becomes alarmed and a physician is
consulted. An examination follows,
and the resu't is that the docter finds
his patient is suffering from a serious
disease, caused primarily, by liver or
kidney trouble.
Statistics prove beyond doubt that
ninety per cent of the'sickness in the
world originates from an unhealthy
condition of the liver. Further statis
tics show that kidney disease at the
present time has the awful record of
5.ooo,ooo victims.
Now, if men and women will only
tust themselves, when they first feel
pains in the back, headaches, loss of
appetite and all those other symp
toms which are the danger signals of
kidney and liver trouble, they will
soon find out whether or not they are
victims of this terrible disease. The
test is simple enough and any one
may try it. Put some morning u
rine in a glass or bottle and let it
stand twenty-four hours. If it gets
cloudy and contains a reddish brick
. dust sediment, or if particles float a
- bout in it, the kidneys are surely di
1 seased and attention should be given
I them immediately.
- Cures of all kinds exist for com
3 plaints of the kidneys and liver, but
there is really only one medicine
I which is universaly recognized by
t docters of all schools and used ex
clusively in all hospitals; this medi
r cine is a purely vegatable compound,
1 free from all sediment, narcotics and
1 harmful drugs, and is called Warner's

"Seven Barks' Cures or No Pay
The cause of nearly every disease can3:
- be directly traced to clogged and inac
-tive stomachs, livers or intestines. Bil
c ousness, Indigestion, Gout, Rheuma
-tism, Headaches, Insomnia, Kidney and
~Bladder troubles, and all Liver Comn
Splaints, emanate from one of the diges
ftive or drainage organs. These organs
emust be kept constantly in action to in
sure uninterrupted good health, and
there is no remedy or corrective, so
harmless and so certain as "Seven
Barks." -
There is no ailment originating from
any of the organs of the digestive and
drainage system, but what will readily
succumb to the use of "Seven Barks"
-a purely vegetable preparation, put up
on a noted German physician's original
formula. It is not a patent medicine.
, .If any one with stomach, liver 'or kid

get a bottle of "Seven Barks," take as
directed--and if all the benefit one
should expect is not derived, no charge
will be made. We are not taking
chances in making 'this offer, for we
know the~ character of the remedy anad
we are satisfied It will do all that is
